Not sure why exactly, but I hate when people say "animes" of course, I also hate when people confuse your/you're, so that's no big surprise, I guess. Strangely enough, I have no problem with people using "ninjas" as the plural of ninja, so go figure.

According to Taco Bell, the singular of Doritos is Doritos.

Coming home from a con and not being able to fully unpack due to $3k worth of computer equipment that needs to be put together taking up all the space in my room. This wouldn't have been a problem if I hadn't gotten my day off last week taken away from me (AWA time off not included) where I was planning on cleaning my room up to make room for said equipment.

"You're taking this movie too seriously. It's not supposed to make you think. You're just supposed to take it as entertainment!"

...

But I am taking it as entertainment. Movies that don't give me any sort of mental challenge are usually such a bore This is also why I tend to analyze even anime. If the mental stimulus isn't there I'll have to create it myself

People being used to you having something done within a day or two every week and saying nothing, but when you're a few days late because of other issues taking precedence, they act like you don't know how to do your job...

This is a big deal for me too. And, just because I can't simply be entertained by mindless trash, I get accused of being an elitist, or thinking I'm smarter than everyone else, or whatever. Maybe we just take this stuff too seriously? I've been trying to be better about it, but when I see giant plot holes or overly sloppy characterization, this switch just clicks in my head and I go into "nope" mode.
